OBSTRUCTION! Comer Torches Treasury Department for Slow Walking Biden Family Finance Docs

House Oversight Committee chairman Rep. James Comer (R-KY) blasted Biden’s Treasury Department ina letter on Monday for obstructing his investigation into the Biden family’s business schemes, including accusations of Hunter Biden’s influence peddling.

“During the Committee’s dialogue with Treasury, you have made several excuses for Treasury’s delay regarding this production,” Comer wrote. “Given the amount of time that has passed since our initial request and Treasury’s inability to provide a projected timeframe when the [Suspicious Activity Reports] will be produced, the Committee believes Treasury may be delaying its production to hinder our investigation and operating in bad faith.”

From The Daily Wire:

Last week, Isabella More, the deputy assistant secretary for oversight at the Treasury, told congressional investigators that the department must still meet with “law enforcement partners” because of the sensitivity of the documents requested by the committee. “[T]his entire process takes considerable time to complete,” More said, according to Comer’s letter.

“Treasury’s excused and delay tactics are unavailing given you have known about our requests since last year and previously produced relevant [Suspicious Activity Reports] to others,” Comer wrote.

The committee chairman said More could better explain herself in a meeting before the committee, and he invited the Treasury official to testify before the committee on March 10.

Comer’s investigation into the Biden family’s finances is one of multiple investigations House Republicans have launched in the Biden administration since taking Congress’s lower chamber in the midterm elections. Comer has taken up investigating questions about President Biden’s family’s foreign business deals as one of his primary endeavors, however.
